US Census enumeration begins in Alaska

The tiny town of Noorvik, Alaska gets the honor of being the first town visited by Census enumerators, and the Head of the Census Bureau, Dr. Robert Groves, travelled to Noorvik to officially kick off the Census yesterday. Most of us here in the US will get Census forms in the mail in March, with follow-up door-to-door enumerations starting in late Spring.

Here is some video footage of the Census kick-off in Noorvik as part of a local news report in Portland, ME:
